Digital technologies have become an integral part of complete denture restoration. With advancement in computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM), tools such as intraoral scanning, facial scanning, 3D printing, and numerical control machining are reshaping the workflow of complete denture restoration. Unlike conventional methods that rely heavily on clinical experience and manual techniques, digital technologies offer greater precision, predictability, and efficacy. They also streamline the process by reducing the number of patient visits and improving overall comfort. Despite these improvements, the clinical application of digital complete denture restoration still faces challenges that require further standardization. The major issues include appropriate case selection, establishing consistent digital workflows, and evaluating long-term outcomes. To address these challenges and provide clinical guidance for practitioners, this expert consensus outlines the principles, advantages, and limitations of digital complete denture technology. The aim of this review was to offer practical recommendations on indications, clinical procedures and precautions, evaluation metrics, and outcome assessment to support digital restoration of complete denture in clinical practice.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

BACKGROUND:In the repair of large bone defects,a variety of factors such as seed cell passaging can cause senescence of osteoblasts,leading to a reduction in osteogenic differentiation activity after implantation of tissue-engineered bone.In recent years,a novel mechanism involving primary cilia in cell senescence has been widely studied,but the primary cilia-related mechanism of"passage senescence-reduced osteogenic activity"is not fully understood.OBJECTIVE:To explore the possible mechanisms by which primary cilia regulate the senescence of MC3T3-E1 cells.METHODS:The osteoblast precursor cell lines MC3T3-E1 were passaged to 10th generation cells(early passage)and 40th generation cells(late passage).siRNA was used to silence IFT88 to inhibit primary cilia formation.The cells were than grouped into passage 10 group,passage 40 group,passage 10+siRNA IFT88 group,and passage 40+siRNA IFT88 group.RT-PCR and western blot assays were used to detect the expression of the aging marker P16(CDKN2A),the osteogenic activity markers bone morphogenetic protein 2 and alkaline phosphatase,and the Hedgehog pathway IHH expression.Alizarin red staining and primary cilia immunofluorescence staining were performed.Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to analyze primary cilia positive rate and IHH and bone morphogenetic protein 2 expression.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The expression of CDKN2A(P16)in the passage 10 group was significantly higher than in the passage 40 group,but the difference disappeared after siRNA IFT88 intervention.(2)Meanwhile,the positive rate of primary cilia cells in the passage 10 group were higher than in the passage 40 group,while siRNA IFT88-significantly inhibited the expression of primary cilia in both passage 10 and passage 40 cells.(3)The transcriptional activity and protein expression of bone morphogenetic protein 2 and alkaline phosphatase in the passage 10 group were higher than those in the passage 40 group.After inhibiting the expression of primary cilia with siRNA,the above differences were reduced or disappeared.(4)The positive rate of primary cilia cells was correlated with IHH and bone morphogenetic protein 2 protein expression.To conclude,primary cilia mediate the replicative senescence of osteogenic MC3T3-E1 cells and regulate osteogenic differentiation ability.

In this study,the carboxylated magnetic beads were coupled with bivalent nanobodies a-gainst porcine epidemic diarrhea virus(PEDV)M protein to construct immunomagnetic beads(IM-NBs-Ⅱ),The capture and enrichment function of IMNBs-Ⅱ was verified by using PEDV propaga-ted in Vero cells.A one-step RT-qPCR detection method for PEDV was established by combining the characteristics of IMNBs-Ⅱ with the detection advantages of reverse transcription fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR).Specific analysis found that this method has no cross reactivity with swine fever virus,porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus,por-cine parvovirus,porcine circovirus,indicating that it has good specificity.Sensitivity analysis re-vealed that the detection sensitivity of the RT-qPCR based on IMNBs-Ⅱ was increased 10 times compared to traditional RT-qPCR methods.Detection of the clinical samples confirm that the RT qPCR method based on IMNBs-Ⅱ is suitable for rapid and accurate detection of clinical feces and tissue samples.The method established in this study effectively avoids contamination issues during nucleic acid extraction,simplifies experimental procedures,and saves detection time,which pro-vides a method for efficient detection of PEDV.

Objective:To compare effects of different training modalities on cardiac remodeling(including cardiac hyper-trophy,myocardial fibrosis,fetal gene expression and capillary angiogenesis)in spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHR)and to investigate potential mechanism.Method:Forty-five male SHR were randomly divided into sedentary(SHR-SED)group,continuous endurance training(SHR-CET)group and high-intensity interval training(SHR-HIIT)group,with ten normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats serving as the normal control(NC)group.The exercise intensity(70%—90%maximal running speed),duration(1-4min)and exercise frequency(3-5d/w)were progressively increased g in SHR-HIIT group,while SHR-CET group consistently exercised at 60%of the maximal running speed.Both groups had equal en-ergy consumption over an intervention period of 12 weeks.After the intervention,caudal artery pressure was assessed by non-invasive blood pressure tester;cardiac structure and function was evaluated by echocardio-gram;histopathological detection was detected by HE and Masson staining;myocardial microvessel density(MVD)was measured by immunohistochemistry;protein expression of atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP),brain natriuretic peptide(BNP),β-myosin heavy chain(β-MHC),hypoxia inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α),endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS)and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)was detected by Western Blot.Result:Compared with NC group,SHR-SED group had elevated blood pressure(P<0.05),concentric hyper-trophy in the left ventricle with decreased cardiac function and myocardial fibrosis,reduced MVD(P<0.05),and increased HIF-1α protein expression(P<0.05).Compared with SHR-SED group,SHR-CET group showed a decrease in blood pressure(P<0.05),left ventricular eccentric hypertrophy with enhanced cardiac function(P<0.05),reduced myocardial fibrosis,increased MVD(P<0.05),decreased HIF-1α expression(P<0.05),and in-creased eNOS expression(P<0.05).The SHR-HIIT group showed worsened left ventricular concentric hypertro-phy and increased BNP expression(P<0.05).Conclusion:Long-term continuous endurance training(CET)alleviated while high-intensity interval training(HI-IT)aggravated cardiac remodeling in hypertensive rats.Traditional CET remains the primary exercise rehabilita-tion method for hypertension,however,the safety and effectiveness of HIIT need to be further confirmed.

Objective To investigate the role of delta/notch-like epidermal growth factor-related receptor(DNER)in gastric cancer and its regulatory mechanism.Methods The mRNA and protein levels of DNER in gastric cancer tissues and cells were detected with quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)and Western blot.Gastric cancer cell line SGC7901 with silenced DNER expression was constructed,and cells were treated with mitochondrial dynamin-related protein 1(DRP1)inhibitor Mdivi-1.CCK-8 assay,Transwell assay,and flow cytometry were used to detect cell viability,invasion ability and apoptosis,respectively.Western blot was used to detect DNER protein levels,apoptosis-associated proteins[Cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase-3(Caspase-3),Bcl-2 Associated X(Bax)],autophagy associated proteins[microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3-Ⅱ/Ⅰ,LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ),p62,PTEN induced putative kinase 1(PINK1)and Parkin],and mitochondrial fission and fusion protein[DRP1,mitochondrial fission factor(MFF),mitochondrial fission protein 1(FIS1),Optic Atrophy 1(OPA1),mitofusin 1(MFN1)and MFN2]levels.Results The expression levels of DNER mRNA and protein in gastric cancer tissues were higher than those in adjacent normal tissues(t=-52.485,-46.955),while expression levels of DNER mRNA and protein in gastric cancer cells were higher than those in normal gastric epithelial cells(F=60.551,60.652),and the differences were significant(P＜0.001).Silencing DNER inhibited the proliferation and invasion of SGC7901 cells,induced apoptosis,and increased the expression of apoptosis-related proteins,with significant differences(t=8.026～25.903,all P＜0.05).Silenced DNER increased LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ ratio(t=18.086),decreased p62 protein level(t=6.747),promoted the aggregation of PINK1 and Parkin proteins in mitochondria(t=15.630,18.171),inhibited the expression of mitochondrial fusion proteins OPA1,MFN1 and MFN2(t=12.835,8.963,9.732),and promoted the expression of mitochondrial fission proteins DRP1,MFF and FIS1(t=16.034,16.939,15.971),with significant differences(all P＜0.05).Mdivi-1 treatment could counteract the effects of silencing DNER on mitochondrial autophagy,proliferation,invasion and apoptosis of gastric cancer cells.Conclusion DNER can reduce mitochondrial autophagy by inhibiting mitochondrial dynamic imbalance,promote cell proliferation and invasion,and inhibit cell apoptosis,thus promoting the progression of gastric cancer.
